Testimonials

“We were blown away by how accommodating you guys were. The staff went out of their way to provide the equipment and service we needed to make our retreat great. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The hotel rooms had everything we could possibly need. It was so much easier having our event rather than at our own facility – you did all the setup so we could focus on the content and people. Thanks!”

My family had a wonderful time at Eagle Eyrie – it had been at least 24 years since we had been there. It is such a huge resource! The hostess where we stayed was absolutely wonderful and she was able to catch us up on the past 24 years. We have such treasured memories of youth events, campus ministry events, etc. and we wanted our children to see this hallowed ground. It was one of the richest weekends my family has had.

“Thank you once again for your gracious hospitality toward us. Everything was most enjoyable. Our accommodations were first class. The food was delicious and the banquet was extra nice. Everything went so perfectly! And one thing I really enjoyed was the [beautiful landscaping] – it adds so much to the atmosphere. Thank you for your foresight in this. All the new additions were so well planned and made for a perfect time on the mountaintop!” -Charlotte

“From the first telephone call, we have been warmly greeted and exceptionally cared for. [Director] Rod Miller answered even the goofiest questions with warmth and understanding. The gentlemen who helped us get tables and chairs were friendly, professional and oh so helpful! The horticulturalist added beauty with the plants – that was a wonderful surprise! Guests stated over and over how beautiful the plants were! The facility speaks for itself. It is beautiful, peaceful and a place of peace. When we held the wedding in the [Hoover Center] Conference Room it looked like a sanctuary. Thank you so much for making this truly a memorable experience. [The bride and groom] were absolutely thrilled!” -Tucker and Linda Swanson Louisa, VA

“Thank you, thank you, thank you! I did have a wonderful stay on my semi-annual pastor’s retreat. I was able to get 6 months of sermons planned and just enjoyed the peace and quiet and a wonderful fire in the fireplace. I so appreciate Eagle Eyrie and the BGAV for making this possible for ministers. Thank you again for the beautiful setting that EE provides and the beautiful spirit of all the employees.
